The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 161, seeks to authorize the issuance of state bonds to support the Marlborough Fire Department in the town of Marlborough. Specifically, the bill empowers the State Bond Commission to issue bonds not exceeding a total of thirty-five thousand dollars. The proceeds from these bonds will be allocated to the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, which will provide a grant-in-aid to the Marlborough Fire Department for the completion of necessary purchases and projects.
The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to facilitate the bond issuance process. The primary purpose of this legislation is to ensure that the Marlborough Fire Department receives the financial support needed to enhance its operations and capabilities through the completion of various projects.
